Radko Gudas found the back of the net in the Flyers' 3-2 win against Detroit on Tuesday.

It was Gudas' second goal and eighth point in 30 games this season. He had just two goals last season and his career-high is six. If he scores any more goals in 2018-19, it will be a bonus. Wed, Dec 19, 2018 06:05:00 AM

Radko Gudas (illness) will not play on Thursday night against the New Jersey Devils.

Gudas missed Wednesday's practice for "maintenance," but he was still wasn't good to go on Thursday night. Andrew MacDonald will take his place in the lineup. Jori Lehtera will be the only healthy scratch. Thu, Nov 15, 2018 06:47:00 PM

Couturier scored two of his three goals in the second period. The first one tied the game, 2-2, while the second one gave the Flyers a 3-2 lead. He finished off the late in the third frame to give his team a two-goal advantage. Couturier finished the night with a plus-1 rating and five shots on goal in 21:47 of ice time. The 26-year-old is up to 19 goals and 19 assists in 45 games this season. Couturier is now riding a five-game point streak. He's picked up nine points during that stretch.

Nolan Patrick scored a couple of goals in Saturday’s 5-2 win over the Montreal Canadiens.

The Flyers had a tough start to the game, getting outshot 11-1 after the opening period but rebounded nicely to close out the second frame with a couple of goals in the final three minutes. Philly then used a couple of third period goals from Patrick to ice this one, breaking Montreal’s four-game winning streak. The 20-year-old center has four goals and six points in his last three games to bring him to nine goals and 17 points in 41 games this season.

Scott Laughton isn't impressed with the way the Flyers are playing right now.

Philadelphia was shut out by Blues journeyman goaltender Jordan Binnington on Monday, which has to hurt. "There’s no jam to our game," Laughton said. "We are one and done every time we get in the zone." The Flyers are currently 15th in the Eastern Conference standings. They're one point away from the basement. They're also 14 points out of a playoff spot at the midway point of the schedule, which means this season is all but over for them.

The hope is that Knight will be given the green light to proceed to the next stage of his rehab, which might include some on-ice work. He was hurt back on Oct. 27 and was originally projected to be out for four months.

James van Riemsdyk scored a goal in Saturday’s 5-2 win over the Montreal Canadiens.

The Flyers were dominated in the opening period, getting out shot 11-1 after the opening period before Travis Konecny opened the scoring and van Riemsdyk doubled Philadelphia’s advantage 93 seconds later. It’s van Riemsdyk’s sixth goal in his last five games, bringing the 29-year-old winger to 12 goals and 22 points in 32 games this season.

Jakub Voracek scored a goal and assisted on two others in Tuesday’s 5-3 loss to the Washington Capitals.

Oskar Lindblom sent a nice feed over to Voracek on a two-on-one, beating Pheonix Copley with a one-timer. Voracek then added assists on third period goals by Wayne Simmonds and Claude Giroux. Voracek's goal breaks a modest four-game goal drought for him, bringing the 29-year-old winger to 11 goals and 35 points in 43 games this season.

Wayne Simmonds scored two goals in Monday's 7-4 win over the Minnesota Wild.

Simmonds' first goal came with six seconds remaining in the second period, while his second tally made it 6-4 for the Flyers in the third frame. The 30-year-old has 15 goals and six assists in 46 games this season.

Coach Scott Gordon tried to move things around Thursday as Konecny started the game on the fourth line with Oskar Lindblom starting in his place on the top line with Claude Giroux and Sean Couturier. But that wasn't working either and by the start of the third, Konecny was back on the top unit. He had an assist on Couturier's goal to give him nine goals and 22 points in 40 games this season.

There wasn't a timetable immediately available, but given that we're talking about hip surgery, an educated guess would be that Laberge will be sidelined for a while. He had 17 goals and 47 points in 64 QMJHL games in 2017-18.

Shayne Gostisbehere scored a goal in Saturday’s 2-1 loss to the Florida Panthers.

Gostisbehere used a simple wrister to beat James Reimer and open the scoring, much to the delight of the home town crowd. The goal gives Gostisbehere 42 in his career, tying him with Andre "Moose" Dupont for sixth all-time in career goals in a Flyers uniform. The goal breaks a four-game pointless streak for the 25-year-old blueliner, getting him to five goals and 16 points in 37 games this season.

Ivan Provorov picked up a couple of helpers in Tuesday’s 4-3 loss to the Ottawa Senators.

Travis Konecny opened the scoring after Provorov’s lob pass from his own end, ended up on Claude Giroux’s stick who fed Konecny for the one-timer. Provorov then followed that up with a primary assist, this time finding Jakub Voracek in the slot for the goal. The Flyers held a 3-1 lead entering the third period, but a three-goal final period by the Senators got them the comeback win. The Russian rearguard will see his six-game pointless streak snapped. He’s up to nine points in 24 games this season. Radko Gudas also scored in the loss.

This will be the second straight game that Hagg has played alongside Provorov. They are slated to play against Colorado's high-scoring top line on Monday. Hagg had a plus-2 rating in 19:38 of ice time against New Jersey on Saturday. He has been productive this campaign with five points through eight outings.

It's been tough for Folin to crack the lineup this year, but this will mark the first time he sits since spending 16 straight games from the end of November through the New Year in the press box. Dale Weise is also expected to sit.

As Flyers GM Chuck Fletcher put it, Morin can "go full tilt now." The expectation is that he's still going to be on the sidelines for another month though as he works his way back up to being ready for games. He started the season on the injured reserve list due to a torn ACL.

There's no timetable for his return though, according to Flyers GM Chuck Fletcher. He stated at the end of December that Elliott might be back in about three weeks, which translates to now. Obviously that hasn't happened, but at least he's making progress.

Carter Hart allowed two goals on 35 shots he faced in Saturday’s 5-2 win over the Montreal Canadiens.

Hart was excellent in this one, adding to his great rookie season so far. He was the difference in the opening period as the Flyers were outshot 11-1, allowing for his teammates to jump out to a 3-0 lead before Max Domi spoiled his shutout with a goal in the final frame. Hart’s record improves to 6-5-1 with a 2.66 goals-against-average and a .915 save percentage. No other goaltender has made more saves in the NHL since Jan. 5 than Hart’s 229.

The Philadelphia Flyers have tied the NHL record for the most goaltenders started in a single season.

That happened when Mike McKenna got the nod on Tuesday. He was their seventh starter of 2018-19. The other goalies to start for the Flyers this season are Brian Elliott, Calvin Pickard, Anthony Stolarz, Carter Hart, Michal Neuvirth, and Alex Lyon. As previously reported, McKenna left something to be desired in his Flyers debut, stopping 20 of 24 shots in a 5-3 loss to Washington.
